How To Beat The Stormclaw in Dauntless

If you’re progressing in the story you should have already beaten Embermane. Stormclaw is a variant of that, only pro efficient in the Shock element now, which means changing up the strategy a bit. It also has some unique attacks that will be covered so you can deflect against them. Perhaps the most annoying and frequent one is when Stormclaw creates a stadium of sorts.

By putting in electric posts, it creates a cage, and if you’re stuck within it with the Stormclaw, expect heavy bashing. Immediately destroy the posts the moment you see him making them. This can be done by rapidly hitting them. But the Behemoth is fast and not one to give you a chance to relax. Be wary of him as you try to get out of the posts, but do hurry since being stuck inside will most likely get you killed.

But that’s pretty much it. Stormclaw can be hard to beat but is very straightforward once you break him down. It also possesses the dash attack of Embermane which will help you if you remember how to counter it. Speaking of Embermane, Stormclaw is considerably larger than him, meaning the hitboxes can be fuzzy at times, not to mention the damage is far more compared to what Embermane dished out.

There’s one attack especially to watch out for. It’s when Stormclaw roars and a black cloud emerges above him and the players. This deals heavy lightning damage however there’s an easy way to avoid it. Count three small bolts and then immediately dodge when you see the third to avoid the fourth bigger one, which is the one that causes massive damage. This will repeat for at least 2-3 times.

He has other attacks as well. But each of them are easy to avoid. One of them is a ground pounce, but when he does this he stands on his hind legs after which he pounces forward and slams the ground, but the window is too large to ignore, and you can easily dodge to the side when you see him do that.

He will also throw lightning orbs at you. These attacks can be rebounded back at him, dishing massive damage to the Behemoth. The Chain Blades, in particular, is the most useful for that. This attack can also break his parts. But be careful, when you break a part, Stormclaw can heal itself.

The key to victory with Stormclaw is patience. If you get too greedy, Stormclaw is bound to punish. Just stick to the golden rule of the booty, and you should be good to go.

Pregnant with a thought so vile, even abortion can't cure it. But cute 2D anime girls can. This is the Centipede, 21 years of pure horror buckled within, ready to report for action. Hopes of becoming a game designer myself. But for now, let's just settle with the fact that I'm a sentient centipede capable of human interactions.
